Title: Batt tray
Post by: fran11784 on February 23, 2016, 02:44:59 PM: My battery tray seems quite tight sliding it in and out. The rails are nice and straight. Anyone had to sand the edges of the CF tray or is it supposed to be that tight?

Sand lightly and rock and roll 😎 first 766 was just right , 806 alittle snug, like you said Aaron, alittle tight is good.. Enjoy that beast..

Both of the tracks are tight on the tray even when not installed on the airframe. I did sand the tray edges a bit. Also warmed up the tracks a bit with a heat gun and then slid them back and forth on the tray. That has helped.
